Cristiano Ronaldo, the legendary footballer who has captivated fans for over two decades, continues to make history both on and off the field. 

Despite nearing the final chapters of his illustrious career, the Al Nassr star is still setting records—this time with a Guinness World Record for the most subscribers gained on YouTube within 24 hours.

Ronaldo's recent venture into the digital world with his YouTube channel, URCristiano, has already garnered an astounding 19,729,827 subscribers within the first 24 hours, a feat confirmed exclusively by Guinness World Records. 

The channel’s rapid growth didn’t stop there, as the number of subscribers has now surpassed 48 million, solidifying Ronaldo's influence beyond the soccer pitch.

Known for shattering records throughout his career, Ronaldo has proven once again why he remains one of the most consistent and celebrated athletes in the world. 

While the Portuguese forward is just one goal shy of reaching 900 career goals, his achievements extend far beyond the soccer field.

Ronaldo's dominance in the world of social media is equally impressive. He holds the record for the most followers on Instagram, with a staggering 637 million, and was the first person to reach 500 million followers on the platform in November 2022. 

With 170 million followers on Facebook and 112 million on X/Twitter, Ronaldo's total social media following nears one billion.

This latest Guinness World Record is not Ronaldo's first. 

He previously received a plaque for ‘Most Goals Scored in International Football Matches by an Individual (Male),’ further cementing his legacy as one of the greatest athletes of all time.
